I could have said it better myself. Felix Erazo www.thrutheviewfinder.com - -----Original Message----- From: owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us [mailto:owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us]On Behalf Of SML Sent: Tuesday, January 15, 2002 11:33 PM To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us Subject: Re: [Leica] M Durability Hello, I don't care which is better built or which is better buy etc. This is one neverending discussion on this list. I do have both but have propensity to use the M3 over the M6 for some reason that I do not know, probably because of the uncluttered viewfinder of the M3. I don't feel the rewind lever and/or the removable film take-up spool of the M3 cumbersome because I take enough time to rewind and load a roll of film. 9/11 reminds me that life is short and unexpected. While we can, why don't we just enjoy using our M3 or M6 whatever we have or whatever we feel like using for our picture-taking. A tad better build quality or a wee bit smoother shutter would not make better pictures, I don't think.
